Phylogenomics of the American robin (Turdus migratorius) reveals hidden lineages and introgression
Journal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.Phylogenomic analyses of Turdus migratorius uncover four previously unrecognized lineages, including a divergent Baja California lineage (T. m. confinis). The results reveal complex evolutionary relationships that depart from simple models of continuous divergence, supported by evidence of introgression between the Mexican lineage and its previously ...

Can surface treatments and climate matching enhance restoration success in the Sonoran Desert?
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Restoring native plant communities in arid ecosystems through seeding is a critical yet often unsuccessful strategy due to severe environmental stressors, including degraded soils, low and variable rainfall, and seed predation. Objectives To improve restoration outcomes, we examined the influence of seed mix types and soil surface
